Quilt & Textile Tours - General Information
I have hosted many specialized tours through international destinations over the years, and I look forward to sharing memorable experiences in countries far and wide with you. In addition to visits of textile interest, we visit historical sites, ancient ruins, modern marvels, and experience the best of what each country has to offer.
Something for everyone! Quilters, stitchers, family, and friends. Each itinerary is carefully planned with unique and exclusive textile visits and activities, as well as all the must-see places.
These tours sell out very quickly - so don’t delay!

Testimonials

"I want to thank you for the beautiful experience and memories. The trip (to France) was more than I’d expected even though my bar was set high. I really can’t pick the highlight of the tour because I enjoyed each and every day.
The accommodation, food, workshops, and the caring personalities of everyone involved made it so memorable that I still get goosebumps! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!" - Ronnie, France Tour Traveller “Thank you to you and Corey for providing such a fabulous tour of Newfoundland! Memories of our Grand Adventure through this beautiful province will stay with me for years to come! Thank you for organizing every detail." - Brenda, Newfoundland Tour Traveller "Thank you for organizing and finding amazing experiences for us which provided inspiration and learning and left us with memories to treasure and new friends... and perhaps a few haberdashery treasures as well! This trip has truly been a wonderful experience for me!" - Cathy, France Tour Traveller |
“Thank you for organizing and leading an amazing tour to Australia. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour from start to finish. I had many “piece-me! am I really in Australia?” moments throught the three weeks. The quilt and textile activities have inspired me to challenge my traditional approach in quilting. Your time and dedication to making this a "trip of a lifetime” is much appreciated. I look forward to joining you on a future tour!”
- Pat, Australia Tour Traveller "Thanks so much for a fabulous trip. I know you work very hard to make everything run as smoothly as possible. It was nice and comfortable to be with a small group of ladies who got to know each other easily. " - Colleen, France Tour Traveller "The trip was absolutely a once-in-a-lifetime experience and exceeded my expectations on so many levels. The history, creativity, artistry, industry, mastery, etc. of places we saw, people we met and everything in between was magical. I often commented to my friend that we felt like we were in a movie/tv set most days! Thank-you again for your gracious hosting and other-worldly organizational skills!” Michelle - UK Tour Traveller |
